Episode synopsis
In December 2005, 30-year-old Andrew Scanlan was reported missing from his home in Peterborough. Vague witness reports put police on a false trail until an eyewitness account placed Andrew with his two half brothers on the evening he was last seen. The police investigation revealed a murderous plot that would deliver a prison cell confession and lead them to Andrew’s body, dismembered in two shallow graves deep in Aldershot woods.
